"We've always had a love for other places outside the US. I would be right with him. Now that Michael's been vindicated, we all have to be careful... you never know what someone's plotting and planning"
About this Quote
The real voltage is in the pivot: “Now that Michael’s been vindicated, we all have to be careful.” Vindication should mean relief, closure, a return to normal. Jermaine treats it like a new phase of danger. That’s the subtext: the legal system may have delivered a verdict, but the court of public appetite doesn’t adjourn. If anything, acquittal can intensify the obsession, turning a person into a target for retaliation, opportunism, or fresh narratives that sell better than the truth.
“You never know what someone’s plotting and planning” lands as both paranoia and realism. It’s the language of someone who has watched fame produce not just fans, but predators, fixers, and hangers-on. Jermaine isn’t building a logical argument; he’s broadcasting a family survival reflex: when your life has been monetized by strangers, innocence doesn’t guarantee safety. It just changes the kind of threat you expect.
